Advanced Chemical Company: 5.5 TCR = 168% of Smelting and refining of nonferrous metals (except aluminum, copper), secondary BLS 3.3 · 8y Form 300A (see methodology below)

Advanced Chemical Company safety composite

Advanced Chemical Company scores strongest on dart rate (safer than 83% of same-industry peers) and weakest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 27%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).
